That Dallas Stars line up looks formidable and they have scoring in spades, A-1 goaltending and a mobile and dangerous Defense! With Heiskanen out of the lineup the Kings catch a break but shouldn't underestimate these Stars or it could get embarrassing really Quick. Its going to take the effort of all 20 Kingsmen to out-duel the Stars in Dallas no less

hope they win this almost solely for the ".500 road trip that's a good job boys!" party line

"it was a .500 road trip and it was so close so many times to being so much more!"

Ha

Its probably time to start resting Anze on one leg of the back to backs.

NEVER!!!

 

[johnjm22]

The old back-to-back, 3rd game in 4 nights on the road.

These usually go well.

Is there any actual stats on teams' records when playing in this situation? It can't be good.

Then they are right back at it Thursday/Saturday/Monday. Brutal stretch.

 

[Omni Owl]

Gonna get dusted. Dallas didn't even play last night.

 

[YP44]

Is clarke really not playing in either back to back? I guess why put in fresh legs right?

Makes me wonder who draws up the schedule are they a bunch of Maroons or what...3 games in 4 nights...4 games in 6 nights with Travel...that should be a "LAbor" issue especially for teams on the coast who have to traverse the whole bloody Continent coast to coast,North to South...Wow,JustF...ingWow!!! Go Kings Go!!! Lets get the "Tre Kronor" line going we need them

 

[head eyes]

We can't let him play because he might play too well and become a superstar. And who's gonna pay for that superstar contract? Huh? Are you gonna pay for it? Didn't think so

Hard to justify sitting Spence or Clarke at this point. Can't think of any reason why JAD should play over Fagemo or Kaliyev. Here's how I'd line 'em up tonight.

Dubois - Kopitar - Kempe
Fiala - Byfield - Laferriere
Moore - Danault - Fagemo
Grundstrom - Lewis - Kaliyev

Anderson - Doughty
Gavrikov - Clarke
Roy - Spence

Kaliyev yes...but Fagemo was in BC this morning,

 

[AbsentMojo]

I dont ever remember teams getting 5 games ahead or behind other teams in games played until recently (like Kings and a few other teams have this season and last). Sparse sucks too becuase teams lose rhythm... Seems the league could do better

 

[lumbergh]

Kaliyev has been really good with Danault and Moore (GF% ~75% at even strength, really outstanding numbers). I'd like to see that line reunited.

Byfield-Kopitar-Kempe
Moore-Danault-Kaliyev
Fiala-Dubois-Grundstrom
Laferriere-JAD-Lewis

 

[Telos]

Would be a nice statement if they took home 4 points back-to-back against decent opponents. Hopefully, they bring it today. GKG!

There's no way TMac would swap around Byfield and PLD, and an even less chance he would break up the 2nd line which is rolling and Danault is on fire. I would roll both Fagemo and Kaliyev, and Clarke and Spence too though, especially against Dallas, but I would be floored if TMac iced that lineup.

Byfield-Kopitar-Kempe
Moore-Danault-Fiala
Fagemo-PLD-Lafferriere
Grundstrom-Lewis-Kaliyev

Anderson-Doughty
Gavrikov-Clarke
Spence-Roy

Talbot

That would be my lineup.

 

[kingsholygrail]

We'll see how satisfied they are with just breaking the streak.

 

[Sol]

Legs gapped and cheeks spread. Kings know the drill.

 

[Bandit]

Its probably time to start resting Anze on one leg of the back to backs.

Incoming 30 minutes for Kopitar

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Incoming 30 minutes for Kopitar

he said 'one leg' and TM said 'that's more than enough'

 

[tny760]

supposedly they flew fagemo over but scratched him

at least clarke and kaliyev are in

hopefully PP2 gets more than 15 seconds of ice

 

[AbsentMojo]

Kopi looks a little off already.. muffin to the goalie and offside
